Re: Day 212

[This really surprised her. Most of her long works tended to be...well, a bit more esoteric than the average reader. Did he really read it all?]

I had originally had higher expectations for the original story than what I had read. This is a general idea of what I would have liked better, especially prose-wise and character-wise. Of course, this is just my opinion. I thought the original Nightlight was incredibly bland and inane in most of its plot progressions.

Still, I shall take a look at your work sometime.

...Thank you.

[Kuroneko felt weird saying that, but holy shit someone actually seemed to genuinely like her stories]

You're very welcome. Thank you for sharing your work with me.

I agree the original Nightlight books were problematic in many ways. There are a lot of interesting elements, but those seem to be the parts that are most glossed over and treated as inconsequential when set alongside the 'romantic' narrative the author is trying to put forward. I think you achieved a much more engaging balance of character driven drama and supernatural elements. And I'm a fan of very descriptive work so I agree with you on the prose, too.

Are you planning to share your work with other members of the Nightlight Club?
